Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming it to be a real value problem, (one might assume x to be complex, solution might differ) break it into appropriate intervals.
1) When x < -8
For this interval absolute (abs) value function can be expanded as follows.
-(x+3) - (4-x) = -(8+x)
solving it we get, x= -1; But x should be less than -8. Thus, it's not a solution.
2) When -8 < x < -3 , equation is
-(x+3) - (4-x) = (8+x)
solving it we get, x= -15; But x should be between -8 and -3. Thus, it's also not a solution.
3) When -3 < x < 4 , equation is
(x+3) - (4-x) = (8+x)
solving it we get, x= 9; But x should be between -3 and 4. Thus, it's also not a solution.
4) When x > 4 , equation is
(x+3) - (-(4-x)) = (8+x)
solving it we get, x= -1; But x should be greater than 4. Thus, it's also not a solution.
Therefore, no value of x satisfies given equation.
Hence, zero number of solution
